AMD has unveiled a new Cinema 2.0 tech demo with Ruby at a press conference in San Francisco, this demo shows off the capabilities of the upcoming Radeon HD 4000 series.

The interactive demo was rendered by a single PC equipped with two "RV770" codenamed graphics cards powered by an AMD Phenom™ X4 9850 Processor and AMD 790FX Chipset. The full demo shows cinema-quality digital images rendered in real-time with interactivity. Check back later this summer for a video of the full Ruby Cinema 2.0 demo.
